So I took my P2V+ out to test a few items, the first being dynamic home point. I am operating in Naza mode and have dynamic home point on on the app I use as well. When I switched to fail safe the drone returned to where I originally stood about 150 ft. from where I currently was. So I turned it off and back on again and the same thing. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Was GPS enabled on your phone?

Yes. I think I needed to flick S2 up and down 5 times. Can anyone verify

No, the Home Position in DHP is set by the location of your phone as determined by the phone's GPS.  GPS must be enabled, and airplane mode may shut it off if used.

S2 toggled in NAZA working mode will set the Home point or Course Lock Heading (or both if you toggle full stroke).

Toggled quickly 5 time each, Top to middle sets Course Lock, middle to bottom sets Home.

I have an iPhone 6 and I know my GPS was enabled so that is what threw me off. I would like to avoid having to remember to flick S2 5 times to change my home point and just have dynamic home point on on the app and have it land wherever I am when failsafe is enabled.

Well, I'm not sure where it would show on the iPhone, but when you set DHP active, and are ready to fly with all systems on and connected, you should have a GPS icon on your phone's screen to indicate that the GPS is active.  You need to check this before messing with anything else.

Like I said, the DHP is set by the phone, not the bird.
